My Brett Favre Blog

In what appears to be the final chapter (for now) in the Brett Favre Vikings story, Favre was signed to a deal to make him the Vikings starting quarterback. The Vikes have long believed they were one great QB away from Super Bowl immortality, but does this really have them Miami-bound in 2010? Let's take a look at some finer points and mark a few games on the Minnesota Vikings 2009 schedule.

The Vikes are super mega solid at RB with Adrian Peterson. We all know that. The problem in the past is that teams looked across the line and saw Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels, so they loaded the line in an attempt to stop the run. Makes sense, but they can not do that so readily now. Now they see a 3-time MVP and Super Bowl winner breaking the huddle. I believe this can only help Peterson and the Vikings.

And now the Brett Favre Vikings, as I like to call them, because they are his team now, make no mistake about that, are immediately a bigger deep threat. Bernard Berrian averaged over 20 yards a catch last year on 48 catches from the inferior Rosenfels Jackson combo. That is the highest average for any receiver with over 35 catches! And now Brett Favre is winging it? Please!

Only two Tight Ends caught more TDs last year than the Vikes' Visanthe Shiancoe; a couple of guys name Tony Gonzalez and Antonio Gates. The arrival of Favre means Shiancoe immediately becomes a top-10 TE again this year.

Schedule time! Let's see, Brett Favre Vikings host the Aaron Rodgers Packers October 5. There are waaaayyy too many angles and dramatic possibilities to discuss here, but even if you are not a Packer Backer or a Vikings Fan, you have got to tune in to see this matchup. Playoff implications abound.

Then the Pack hosts the Vikes in Labeau Field on November 1, on All Saint's Day. So do not eat too much Halloween candy the night before, and break out your favorite Saint's relics, because this is going to be a monster. Brett knows a little about playing in Lambeau, and Rodgers was absolutely fabulous replacing the legend last year. I can't wait.

Brett Favre Vikings, wow, it doesn't sound right, but unless the flip-flopping Favre changes his mind again, get ready for some drama in Minnesota in 2009, and possibly a Super Bowl run.

Brett Favre has been waiting for this for over a year, when he joined the Jets. I always thought that he was going to make history and complete his Legacy with the N.Y Jets. Life doesn't work out the way you think it would.

Brett Favre got an opportunity from the Minnesota Vikings which was the Arch nemesis for Green Bay Packers (his former team - where he created his legacy). Everyone thought that Favre was on his way to destroy his legacy by playing for Vikings, but people forgot for a brief moment that Favre is a Living Legend, and legends don't go down so fast.

2010 is Brett Favre's year, and he will prove this to everyone, who has ever criticized him. The missing piece for the Vikings, was a top of the line QB, which they have now found in Favre. Even though we don't know if Favre is going to stay with the Vikings for the years to come, but he is here to extend his Legacy as Minnesota Vikings take on the Dallas Cowboys, in their home ground.

I feel assured of my NFL Prediction, for this game, as I watch the Vikings get a fabulous start on their way to what I believe would be a great Vikings Victory. Brett Favre has Turned 40 this year, and I believe deserves to win the SuperBowl this year in 2010.

Tony Romo is trying real hard, but at Half time has been restricted by the Minnesota Defense, which is as Solid as ever. I hope for the sake of NFL's History, that Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings take home the Super Bowl this year.

Brett Favre is a proven winner and leader at the quarterback position, his statistics and 17 years in the NFL speaks for itself. The season he had last year for the New York Jets proves he can still perform at a high level. The team Brett Favre wants to play for this year is the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings was good enough to make the playoffs last year despite not having a great quarterback. If the Vikings add Brett Favre to the team, it would make them one of the top teams in the NFL.

Brett Favre is a three time Associated Press MVP (1995-97). He is a sure hall of famer and his numbers thru the years proves it. He holds virtually every NFL career passing record, touchdown passes (464), wins (169), completions (5720), attempts (9280), and yards (65127). Brett also has the longest consecutive game stretch for a Quarterback (253).

Last year Brett Favre proved that his skills did not diminished. He had the the New York Jets looking like super bowl contenders for about 3/4 of the season. After eleven games the team was 8-3 and coming of big wins against the Patriots and Titans. Brett was throwing the football well and looked like his old self during this period of the season. People want to remember that he faded toward the end of the season, but they should remember how good he played for most of it. His statistics for last year was 522 attempts, 343 completions, 22 touchdowns, 22 interceptions, 3472 passing yards, 9 wins and was voted to the Pro Bowl, not bad for any quarterback playing in the NFL at any age.

The Minnesota Vikings despite all their problems at quarterback (going from Jackson to Frerotte back to Jackson) still had a successful season last year. The team managed to win the NFC north division with a 10-6 record, and hosted a playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagels. The team has one of the best defensive units in the NFC, and on Offense it has one of the best lines and running back (Adrian Peterson) in the NFL. The only thing the club lacks is a quarterback.

If the Vikings sign Brett Favre they would get a leader at the quarterback position that basically already knows their system. Last year with the Jets Favre had to learn an entirely new system of plays and signals. He struggled at first with learning and getting accustomed to the new system. If he signs with the Vikings he shouldn't have this problem, because the Vikings run a similar system that he used while playing in Green Bay.

In fact the offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell worked with Favre from 2000 to 2005, he was the offensive assistant (2000-2002) and quarterback coach (2003-2005) for the Greenbay Packers. Favre should fit in right away working with his old quarterback coach. Another key reason why signing Favre would make them better, is the fact that he will not have to carry the offense by himself. He will have help on this team he can hand the ball off to Adrian Peterson or throw it to his receivers Bernard Berrian and rookie Percy Harvin.

In conclusion I believe that Brett Favre is still one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL. His performance last year proved he can still play at a high level. I feel that after watching the success of the Vikings last year, Brett Favre would be the missing piece to the puzzle. If he signs with Minnesota, the Vikings could possibly be representing the NFC in the next super bowl.

Brett Favre Vikings jerseys were taking off before he was even an official member of the team. When the rumors started to pick up their pace, everyone assumed that Favre would sign with the team and resume his career. Then he dropped the bombshell, basically saying that you may as well return that Vikings Brett Favre jersey you purchased, because I'm staying retired and my career is over for good!

Everyone was pretty shocked with that result, and the team began to move on from their hopes of having him on board. That didn't last for long though, as we know. Very shortly after, when nobody even expected it at all, Favre decided to come back after all. Now Brett Favre Vikings jerseys are available from retailers, after much back and forth. Upon their release, they have immediately taken off as some of the most popular items available amongst any kind of NFL apparel.

Old number 4 definitely looks good in his purple and gold Vikings Brett Favre jersey. Of course, it's sill somewhat hard to imagine considering he spent so much of his career as a division rival of the Vikings. However, the time has come that he's with the squad and fans are embracing his presence.

The question of course remains how good he is going to be with the club. Now that he's on the team, fans wearing their Brett Favre Vikings jerseys have expectations of Super Bowl or bust. That's because the team was already extremely talented. They have one of the best running backs in the league in Adrian Peterson. Additionally, they added versatile offensive threat Percy Harvin in the draft.

The defense is extremely solid as well, which means that Favre won't have to be overly aggressive. He can let the defense shut down the opposing team, and he can let Peterson pile up his yards and eat up the clock. Then he can take advantage of openings and put up some points.

Finally the wait is over, and Favre is with the Vikings. We can put all of the drama and all of the back and forth madness behind us. It's time for him to show if all of the hype was worth it, and if he can really make a difference in the playoff and championship aspirations of the talented Minnesota team.
